Raider Team Classroom

The Raider Team Training Site has been established. There are two broad categories of training that we all need to complete.

 

The First category of training is the Map Reading which consists of a series of videos and lessons that are between 1-2 minutes in length. This will build serve a basic understanding of how to read a map. We will build on this knowledge by adding more information during the Orienteering Training. This training needs to be done by the end of the month as we will start to compete in orienteering competitions soon.

 

The next category of training is the distance learning First Aid Lesson on the JROTC distance learning website. Enroll into the Raider Team Moodle site by clicking in the link below.
